During the Revolutionary Period in American history, a nickname-description of one of the typical soldiers involved that utilizes "red" is "Redcoat". This was a slang term of sorts used to describe the basic foot-soldier serving in the British army: these foot-soldiers wore red-colored jackets as a regular piece of their standard-issue uniform.

Nathan Hale was hung because he was a spy for the patriots and was out of uniform on the British side and was claimed as a spy. He was hung in manhattan.
No, generally the patriots were farmers, blacksmiths, carpenters, or other just regular guys. They were not very well funded and could not afford proper military formalities. They would often be at home sleeping with their families and be woken in the middle of the night to run out in fight nearby their homes. They would put on whatever their regular clothes were and take off. Yet after the Battle of Saratoga, France started funding America, and got uniforms along with other supplies. A Continental soldier's attire included a cocked hat, a waist coat and regiment coat, breeches, long stockings, and leather shoes. Two cross-belts strapped over his shoulders, one used for a cartridge box, and one to hold a bayonet in place on either side of his hips. A white cotton or linen waist coat was under the soldier's overcoat. These overcoats were either blue or brown (depending on which state a soldier belonged to).
National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws was created in 1892.
